A five-time Emmy winning SNL comedy writer/producer, joins a four-time #1 NYT bestselling author, a three-time highest-rated national progressive radio host, a two-time Grammy winning artist, and a former US Senator. So, it gets a little crowded in the booth when Al talks public policy and sometimes political comedy with notable guests. Think “The Daily” without the resources of the NYTimes.

Franken, Slavitt, Garrett

Jam packed with good information for sure. Painful reality about our public health issues. Not enjoyable but necessary. Thanks to all of you.

A GREAT Podcast…you know, for a change!

Al Franken, Giant of the Senate and now champion of the podcast! I look forward to each weeks frightening, informative, and entertaining episode! Keep them coming! When you get tired of this, though, please go back to the Senate! We need you there!
